I am a postdoc at the University of Geneva with David Cimasoni until January 2027. I just finished a postdoc at Université de Neuchâtel with Peter Feller. Before, I was at ETH Zurich with Peter Feller and Lukas Lewark.
I finished my PhD at the University of Glasgow in 2023, supervised by Andy Wand. My thesis is titled On right-veering diffeomorphisms and binding sums.
Previously I was at the University of the Basque Country for my undergrad and at the University of Cambridge for my Master's degree, where I did an essay titled The Heegaard Floer contact invariant supervised by Jake Rasmussen.
Research Interests:
Contact 3-manifolds
Open book decompositions and mapping class groups of surfaces
Heegaard Floer homology
Low-dimensional topology
Knot theory
Symplectic topology
I am interested in low-dimensional topology, that is, the study of manifolds of dimension up to and including 4. 4-manifolds (smooth/symplectic/complex) are often hard to understand but can be studied using 3-manifolds (smooth/contact). In turn, a lot of information about these can be gathered by embeddings of knots and surfaces in them (i.e. 1- and 2-manifolds) and, in some cases, diffeomorphisms of these surfaces. I focus mainly on the latter, see the Research tab for more details.
